We understand that every family’s needs are unique. That’s why our fees are based on a sliding scale considering family income and size, ensuring that parents pay what they can afford. Our after-school program runs from 2:30 p.m. to 6:00 p.m. during the school year, except on school holidays. For your convenience, the program operates during school vacations and throughout the summer from 7:30 a.m. to 5:30 p.m.

Engaging Activities and Enrichment

Our age-appropriate activities focus on social, emotional, and academic development. We empower children to make choices and express their creativity. After completing their homework, children are encouraged to participate in various options, whether it’s team sports, games, physical activities in our gymnasium, pool time, or visits to nearby parks. Homework Help is available with support from classroom educators, including one-on-one or small group tutoring for those who need it.
